Why does the water in the bathroom turn yellow after it sits

So after I have a shower and some of the water from the bath just falls to the bath mat / floor when I come to clean it up it has a yellow outline to it why does it happen? It's usually like that after it has been sitting for a while..has anyone experienced this? This didn't happen in the flat where I was before...

Have you got a toilet nearby and small boys?

Fake tan? Hair dye?

Minerals in the water I think. Iron oxides? Can stain the limescale in your loo as well if you have hard water

Yes there is hard water and the agency did say that the pipes had rust that maybe causing it?
